Thanks for that. Not the first time the brazen Vince has masqueraded as the public spirited taxpayer he isn't. This is him talking to the Evening Standard a few years ago whilst he was raking £millions out of Ecotricity in interest-free loans which would soon disappear in a puff of smoke and which, of course, he didn't mention:ctfc-fan wrote: ↑20 Jan 2023, 13:21 Thought you’d like this Bob

But he says: “I am not driven by the creation of wealth. We need more of a social-enterprise approach to business. It shouldn’t just be about making money which leads you to a short-term horizon.” All company profits go into funding the building of new sources of green energy, a Bills into (wind) Mills model. He doesn’t know the starting salary at his company but Vince earns £120,000 a year, taxed and deposited at Barclays (he makes an apologetic face, saying there are no green banks). “Tax is important — it’s how we run the country. It is wrong that companies like Starbucks and Amazon avoid tax. I don’t think our government should let it happen — it has abdicated control in that respect. There are people who can’t feed their families and that is happening off the back of tax breaks and avoidance by big companies and the rich. Ed Miliband will stop that.
Profits? What profits?
